Crazy Hair Day!

Today was Crazy Hair Day at school and we had some good hair-dos planned. Sadly Livie got sick last night and couldn't go. She cried and cried this morning because she really wanted to go have crazy hair. But I promised her we could make her hair crazy on Friday, which is School Spirit Day.

So Sammi wanted a Mohawk or spikes. Thus we opted for the spiked Mohawk! I think I need more practice since some of the spikes fell. But all in all I was excited that half of them worked. Those were some pretty high spikes! She also got a kick out of trying to get in and out of the car with them. She couldn't really sit up at all, luckily the school is only a block away.

Then of course I had to mess with pre-sets a little and found a really cool one that makes it look more Punk.

Fun With Pre-sets

I never think I have anything good to blog about, but then I remembered some cool pictures I was messing with a while back.

We were at Jordanelle and the sun had gone down behind the mountain so the lighting was no bueno. I took a few pictures of Riley. (she's usually the only one willing to pose for me) They were not spectacular because of the lighting, but I started messing with them in Lightroom and ended up with some pretty cool looking photos.

These were fun because she was flipping her hair around and we were trying to catch good shots mid-action.

It's always great when I can get an awesome shot straight out of the camera, but I loved how cool I could make these so-so shots look.
